I’m sure you’ve all heard of Benefit’s Box o’ Powders, basically how they present most of their highlighters, blushes and bronzers~ Such beautiful packaging, but not really the most practical, especially when you’re close to hitting pan. Just not as easy to get all the product out without a long handled brush.
That aside, Hervana is one of their latest blushes released quite some time ago now. It has a beautifully floral scent! I’ve seen many youtubers sniffing the blush on camera, and yes that is weird! At least, it’s weird to watch. I get it smells lovely, and I think it does, but I’m not sure I’m quite at the stage of inhaling powder!
Sorry, I keep getting sidetracked. The blush itself is lovely, it is made up of a swirl of four shades, lucky shell, divine peach, heavenly rose and berry delight. When mixed together you get a soft pink with a good amount of pigmentation so that just a couple of swipes across the cheek is all you need.
I know this blush does work to give a subtle glow for darker skin tones so I can happily recommend it to all~ I think everyone needs at least one Benefit blush, they are such a treasure on their own 
The blush manages to hold up quite well for an entire day, though as with most makeup products, it tends to fade slightly after 4-5 hours of use.
If you’re keen, you can purchase this online for $28US, I’m really not sure what the price is like in Australia but I know they are available at all the Benefit counters within Myer.
I think they are around the $50 mark here in Aus! I bought my Hervana from the US though, hauled a whole stack of Benefit at once to get the shipping deal! Great swatch Celina x

The blushes are $51 here which is ridiculous. I recently went to Hawaii and the difference in prices on all makeup is crazy! I got a pack which included the Bella Bamba blush and 3 other full sized products for $38! I think I’ll be needing Hervana after your swatch Celina, I guess I’ll be buying from the Benefit US website, yet again, haha.
